    Structural engineers design the bones of the building, the sub-structure, that is involved with columns, rafters, and other elements that help stabilize the building. When they build their drawings and whatever they look after as a structural engineer, that is often covered by the facade that an architect encases that structure in. Structural Engineering professionals make sure the building is able to withstand any force it may see through its lifetime, be it gravity forces or lateral forces. The average annual salary for a Structural Engineer is INR 6.1 LPA, which may vary on the basis of the experience and skill set.
